Abstract

A water repellent zipper assembly is provided. A slider (16) includes a pull tab (17). A slider cap (30) includes: a body portion (43) having an outer surface (42), and an inner surface (44) opposite the outer surface (42); a first sidewall (38) protruding from one end portion of the body portion (43) in a width direction of the body portion (43); a second sidewall (38) opposite the first sidewall (38) and protruding from another end portion of the body portion (43) in the width direction of the body portion (43); and a snap tab (34,35) extending between at least a portion of an inner surface of the first and second sidewalls (38). The inner surface (44) of the body portion (43) and the snap tab (34,35) define a pocket (45) that receives the pull tab (17) of the slider (16). The body portion (43) of the slider cap (30) covers the slider (16) and a leading edge (40) of the slider cap (30) extends beyond a leading edge of the slider (16).
